This is an early update for February. Two reasons, I have stuff to write
about right now, second I'm going to be super busy in February.

This year I attended ShmooCon for the first time. I liked it a lot and plan
to go again. I didn't know ShmooCon was running for 10 years already. They
seem to have a good grip on the conference and don't let it explode in size.

Troopers (Heidelberg, Germany). There is one mobile talk in the main conference but there in addition they have TelSecDay (invite only) that focuses on Telecommunication security. The main conference talk is: Modern smartphone forensics: Apple iOS: from logical and physical acquisition to iCloud backups, document storage and keychain; encrypted BlackBerry backups (BB 10 and Olympia Service)
by Vladimir Katalov.

30C3 was
awesome. A lot of good talks, many friendly people, and an awesome location.
The recordings of all talks can be found here.

The slides and source for my talk Android DDI are available here: slides and source.

I was super busy so I guess I missed a lot that was going on in the 2nd half of December. I will start posting stuff again later this month.

I'm going to ShmooCon in mid January and to Troopers in March.
